Reworking the Workflow: Easy On Acceptance Deposits

Obtaining metadata and content for your repository can be challenging. Wait until after publication, and you can likely harvest the metadata - but then you may not be able to get the content. Authors have the manuscript to hand when they get notification of acceptance for publication - but then the metadata has to be manually entered, and they may not have all of it, requiring that it is updated later.

This poster shows a new capture process and workflow that encourages authors to deposit their manuscript when it is accepted for publication, and automatically combines it with harvested metadata after publication to complete the repository record.
